Aparatus for water purifying and dehumidifying with air purifying system

Abstract

An apparatus for water purifying and dehumidifying with an air purifying system purifies air and purifies condensate water produced by dehumidification such that the condensate water can be used as drinkable water, as a single product, whereby various functions are given to one product. Accordingly, there is an effect that the manufacturing cost of the product is reduced and expenses by customers are decreased, whereby it is possible to improve competitiveness of the product in terms of practical use.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An apparatus for water purifying and dehumidifying with an air purifying system, the apparatus comprising:
 a case having an inlet on a first side and an outlet on a second side;   an air purifier installed behind the inlet and purifying air flowing inside through the inlet;   a dehumidifier installed behind the air purifier and storing condensate water by collecting water contained in air that has passed through the air purifier;   a ventilation fan installed behind the dehumidifier, suctioning air flowing inside from the inlet, and discharging the air to the outlet; and   a water purifier purifying water stored in the dehumidifier,   wherein the dehumidifier includes:   several thermoelectric elements installed in a longitudinal direction;   a cooler installed on first sides of the thermoelectric elements and condensing water in air flowing inside through the inlet on the surface thereof;   a heat dissipater installed on second sides of the thermoelectric elements and dissipating heat; and   a condensate water tank storing condensate water produced by the cooler.   
     
     
         2 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the water purifier includes:
 an air purification filter installed behind the inlet and removing dirt in air; and   an air quality measurer installed on a first side of the case and measuring the air quality of the atmosphere.   
     
     
         3 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the water purifier includes:
 a water purification filter filtering out dirt in condensate water by transferring condensate water stored in the condensate water tank through a condensate water transfer pump;   a purified water tank storing water purified through the water purification filter;   an assistant purified water tank to which water stored in the purified water tank moves when the water stored in the purified water tank exceeds a predetermined water level; and   a heat pipe having a first end being in contact with the inside of the assistant purified water tank and a second end being in contact with the heat dissipater, and   heat from the heat dissipater is dissipated by coming in contact with the surface of the water stored in the assistant purified water tank through the heat pipe.   
     
     
         4 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the heat dissipater includes
 a heat dissipation body vertically formed to have a predetermined length, several thermoelectric elements are longitudinally attached to both sides facing each other of the heat dissipation body, so heat from the first sides of the thermoelectric elements is absorbed into the heat dissipation body;   the cooler includes a cooling plate bent in a zigzag pattern, several cooling plates are longitudinally attached to the second sides of the thermoelectric elements, so cooling heat from the second sides of the thermoelectric elements transfers to the surfaces of the cooling plate, whereby water in air coming in contact with the surfaces condensates; and   the heat dissipation body is inclined at a predetermined angle toward the ventilation fan, whereby water condensing on the surfaces of the cooling plate moves in the inclination direction and drops to the condensate water tank.   
     
     
         5 . The apparatus of  claim 4 , wherein the heat dissipation body is made of an aluminum material, a transfer channel through which fluid is transferred is longitudinally formed in a zigzag pattern in the heat dissipation body, and an intake hole and a discharge hole connected to the transfer channel are formed at both longitudinal ends of the heat dissipation body. 
     
     
         6 . The apparatus of  claim 5 , wherein connection ports for coupling water circulation pipes coming from the water purifier are fastened to the intake hole and the discharge hole, respectively;
 the connection ports each include an insert body having an outer diameter corresponding to inlets of the intake hole and the discharge hole and forcibly fitted in the intake hole and the discharge hole, a guide flange extending from the outer surface of the insert body and fastened by bolts in close contact with the outer surfaces of the inlets of the intake hole and the discharge hole, and a fastening body extending from the guide flange and coupled to the water circulation pipe on the outer surface; and   the insert body is formed such that the outer diameter thereof increases from an end inserted in the intake hole and the discharge hole to the other side, and an O-ring groove for installing an O-ring is formed on the outer surface of the insert body.   
     
     
         7 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein moving wheels are installed on the bottom of the case.
